One Step at a Time - July 2012

Hi Techie, thanks for that book recommendation. It is on my Amazon wish list.

I forget how long it is now that I've been wearing bifocals. I tried contacts briefly, but decided they weren't worth fussing with.

Mama, I've had that call back experience. Now I drive into the city to where you can wait for your results, have more pics taken the same day.

Paula, glad your blood work was good. I really need to go back to my neurologist. I'm having more painful nights when I just don't get enough sleep. I can't take most of the Otc stuff because of my gerd, but I hope there's something.

We have a thunderstorm here, but I think it will be over in time for my outdoor hydrangea class in less than two hours.

I always worried about liver function while drinking, but not always enough to stop, I feel lucky to be told my lft was normal. Liver disease is not always due to al, but it does cause an awful lot of problems. I also have to wear glasses most of the time now, and the cost is atronomical, oh dear getting older is no joke. Good luck with your mamo results Mama. My doctor gave me tramadol to take at night for pain, which seems to be helping me sleep better, Sun. Goodnight everyone.

Paula, thanks for mentioning tramadol, I have a script for that. I tried melatonin last night. I fell asleep more easily but then woke up every hour beginning at 2:00 am.

Mama, many hydrangeas are only root hardy up here, so the flower buds get frozen off over the winter. But this guy in my area has developed a system of pruning, mulch and fertilizer to get more blooms. He has a book out, sold on Amazon called Growing Hydrangeas in the Northeast. The class was at his house.

Today I plan to get a fall crop of peas planted. Hopefully I have it timed so they mature after our vacation in late September. We are also going to a presentation on a cruise to Alaska we hope to take next year.

my dream has always been to retire have a nursery...or else just a beautiful garden...flowers and veggies.
My father is a gardner. He lives in Sea Island and won Garden of the Year last year...I think that's a pretty big deal.

Good morning everyone! Day 10 here for me and loveing the AB!

Mama...so glad to hear that your mammo went well. Sorry to hear that you have been having some emotional issues lately but this too shall pass my friend! That's horrible about the young person in your building that committed suicide...I thought it was an accidental drowning. It's so sad to think that some people think that things are so bad that they have to take their own life.....so sad..I feel bad for his parents!!!!
I wore glasses since I was 18 years old and could never wear contacts due to issues with my eyes. I had Lasik surgery 4 years ago and I love it....no more glasses!!!! I definitely don't miss them fogging up when you go in and out of the A/C during the day...ha!

Nora....I am glad that you re back on the AB. I have been on it for a week an I think it is amazing. I am still taking my supplements as I like to play it safe....but this time around I am in a really good place!

Paula....so glad that your results were good! YAY! It sounds like you are doing great!

Sun...Good for you for stopping when you did. I could never have done that...that just goes to show how strong you are! Have fun planting your peas today!

Mama - we do need new Steppers. I thought this was going to be a good place for people to feel comfortable to post. Everyone is welcome here and I hope that people do stop by.

Had a horrible day at work yesterday. Absolutely horrible. Would have most definitely been a drinking day but luckily I'm on AB. Well - back to work. Catch you all later.........:wavin:
